Get Your Sh*t Together: This 85-Year-Old...

Mel Robbins
About this episode

In this episode, you will meet Judie, a total badass who has it all figured out, from killer biceps to fulfilling friendships to staying mentally sharp, spunky, and sexy. She’s got it all together.

 

Who is Judie? She’s my 85-year-old mother-in-law.

  

You don’t need a library full of books filled with the science of staying young forever. Today you are getting the cliff notes for living a long, happy, healthy, fulfilling, and purposeful life.

 

She will teach you:

  • The reason moments of joy are fleeting for you and how to make them last longer.
  • The most important relationship you need to foster in your life.
  • The surprising thing you can do this week to create purpose in your life.
  • Why you need friends that are younger AND older than you.
  • How to create a killer morning routine that fuels your busy life.
  • The 3 ways to keep your mind young at any age.
  • The reason YOU need to be the first one to pick up the phone.

 

 

Today Judie is sharing her 7 secrets to longevity and coaching you on how to get the life you deserve. She spills her no-BS secrets on how to take care of your mind, body, and relationships.

 

Backed by research and 80 years of experience, her love of life and ability to embrace moments of joy and give back are what make her such an inspiration.

 

I am so excited to introduce this wonderful person to you. I want you to take a page out of her playbook.

 

You’re never too young or too old to start living life the way you want.

 

And it is NEVER too late to be the badass you were meant to be.

 

Xo, Mel
